Jewish Dave Matthews?

Thisarticle discusses Rick Recht, who they claim is sometimes referred to as the "Jewish Dave Matthews". He does about 150 performances a year: not bad. His music is supposed to promote "Jewish Pride" and has gained a nice following over the years. He even sings Carlebach a bit surprising, since he's a conservative Jew (but Carlebach music gets around). I don't think I would put him in the Blue Fringe category since you will generally never see teenage boys who have decorated their bare chests as you would at Rick Recht concert.
